C0287 Description

 

The Electronic Brake Control Module (EBCM) supplies 5 VDC to the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) on the delivered torque signal circuit. The PCM toggles this voltage to ground in order to create the delivered torque signal at the EBCM. A signal with a frequency of 128 Hz +/- 5 percent and a duty cycle of 25-95 percent is a valid delivered torque signal. The percentage of the duty cycle is proportionate to the percentage of delivered torque.
